Finger Cookies

These creepy finger sugar cookies make a great Halloween threat that will have your family and friends oohing, awing and squealing!

Cookies – What You Need:

  • 3 Cups of Flour
  • 1 Cup of Sugar
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 Cup of Butter (I use salted)
  • 1 Large Egg
  • tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Slivered Almonds

Directions:

  1. Mix together flour and baking powder.
  2. Using your mixer combine the sugar, butter (softened), egg and vanilla extract.  Mix well.
  3. Gradually add flour and baking soda mixture and mix until dough can be formed into a ball.  (If dough is too dry add water two or three drops at a time until it reaches the desired consistency).
  4. Form the cookies by rolling the dough into finger size shapes.
  5. Flatten one end slightly and stick an almond slice in for the fingernail.
  6. Cut 3-4 small slices for each knuckle.
  7. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
  8. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  9. Bake in a 350 degree oven until cookies have just a touch of golden brown.  (Time will depend upon size and thickness of cookies – usually 10 – 12 minutes).
